Figures you noticed that! I took that pic a few weeks ago, but have still been throwing PD's off and on.

My initial thought for pulling them was that it was overlapping with the Predators and Wraiths too much to justify another mold, and it seemed like I was carrying 2 molds (PD/Cyclone) in place of 1 (Pred). I still sorta think I could get by with just an assortment of Predators, but they're not quite as long as the PD and not quite as workable as the Cyclones.

So, to answer questions:1. I'm not sure I have yet2. Nope. Not unless you want to trade some 10X Rocs for them.

Immediately after the last picture I put a PD back in the bag, and realized why I like them so much.I played two solid tourney rounds on Saturday, never felt like I was missing a disc, and I threw everything more than once.I won Advanced by 2 strokes, so hopefully I can talk myself out of any bag changes for a while, minus cycling of course.

Nice setup but Buzzes in for rocs, what's that about? I'm quite fond of the PD / Stalker combo, which one is your stalker(s)? I've been pretty curious about the xXx but I've been using cfr/star maxs for stuff like that.

Oh and where did you come off with that revo? I'm looking to snag one of them up myself.

The DD knuckle dye is the Stalker. I honestly don't throw it too much, but I like having it for a few specific shots.

Buzzz/Rocs... Meh. I threw Buzzzes long before I ever threw a Roc. I always liked that it felt and flew more like a driver than a mid. The glow Buzzz is stable enough for anything I need it to do. Sometimes I miss the slow hyzerflip of a beat Roc, but the thrashed D Buzzz is similar. We got in a batch of new Rocs and they're just terrible in feel and flight. This prompted my hasty switch, although I have enough backup Rocs I like, you know, one of those tinkering moments.

I'm not convinced it's the Roc+ mold (not entirely positive it's not either) but they damn sure aren't the Rancho I came to know and love. Rounded inside rim, too domey and flip right out of the box. Yuck.

This is the first disc switch since my last post in October, mainly due to cabin fever, not getting to the course and sitting here (and reading on dgr) thinking what I could throw in place of what I've been carrying.

I wasn't really in a slump, but I felt a little lackluster in my previous few outings, and Frank said this and got me thinking.

So here's what I played with today. All these discs/molds have been in my bag at one time or another so it wasn't a completely new experience, but save the Buzzz/Cyclone, I haven't thrown any of these molds in probably at least a year, longer for some. I played fairly well, shot right at my average on my home course.

A few realizations for me:• I've cleaned up my forehand a lot since the last time I threw a Force, and it really performed today. The ESP is great for a flat/slightly anny release that fights the whole way and finishes with a solid hyzer. The Z is a wind beater for sure.• I love throwing the Cyclone. I don't know why I go back and forth on carrying it so much, every time I carry it I throw some spectacular frozen rope shots with it.• The Challenger is a great driving putter. I think it's pretty interchangeable with a Wizard or BB Aviar, but I've been throwing Wizards for so long that I forgot how nice a Challenger is. I think I need to try out a few X Challengers, they're the only version I've not thrown.• I said it when they announced it, and I'll keep saying it: I hate Discraft for discontinuing X Predators. I think this is their best driver/plastic combo and every time I throw one I wish I had a bigger stack of them.• Switching from a Sonic to a Rattler is a definite grip adjustment. Forehand touch shots are fine but backhand the rattler kept slipping out early. Luckily it's pretty beat so it would flip and finish right.

S PD: long and straight, honestly it's only in the bag for nostalgia really.Star Roadrunner: rollers, quick turning annys, long flex annysStar Destroyer: seasoned, stands up nicely from a hyzer and penetrates forward as it finishesStar Destroyer: newish, still over stable enough for my flick and headwind distance drives, great for skips

D Challenger x 4: approach and putting duties, the light blues are newly cycled inESP Zone: this is what I wanted the Cro to be when it came out. Great for short approaches both bh and fh, sticks when it hits, great for spike hyzer approaches

It's been over a year since I've posted my bag- and surprise of all surprises- it's changed! It's funny how things cycle for me. I'll go for months throwing a disc or mold, and one trip to the "basement of discs" and I inadvertently pick something up and think, "I like the way this feels, why'd I stop throwing it?' So it gets swapped. For whatever reason my OCD keeps me somewhat adherent to mold minimalism. Somewhat- it's a little moldy right now.

So here it is right now.Yeti Aviar x 4 purple are putters, white and red are throwers. I loved the way the Yeti felt when it came out but felt they were too soft. Recently I decided they weren't, and they've been making their rounds. So far so good.Z Wasp / X Wasp / Z Buzzz / ESP Comet / X Comet Overstable to understable midranges. Was recently throwing a few more Buzzes in place of the Wasps, and before that a myriad of Rocs, a Ghost, Axis, Vectors, etc. Ehhh, I like throwing midranges, and I like a handful of midrange molds. If someone gave me free ones I guess I'd commit. Until then they cycle.S TD / P PD / P PD / S PD / S PD Understable to overstable drivers. TD is a great disc, I like it for smooth hyzer flips and gradual turns. Easy to put out there a ways too. Thrashed PD is good for powered down shots, tailwinds and hyzer flips that finish anhyzer. Fresh PPD is wearing in, good for longer distances and hyzer flips that finish hyzer. Worn SPD is my workhorse, straight for days. Fresh SPD is between the worn PD and the FB. Flicks and hyzer shots. Glow Firebird beefbeat ESP Force / fresher ESP Force Long distance shots, flicks, low lines, reliable headwind distance. Could probably drop them but I have room for now.DX Sonic / Zephyr Approaches and warm ups. Sonic is for outside jump putt range but short of a Yeti throw. And I love throwing turnover flick approaches with it. I could do without the Zephyr, but it's so much fun to throw.

Haha, that's one of the nostalgia discs for me for sure. I'm still holding on to my favorites, and they always get felt up when I'm in the basement. I've kept them out for a while now though. My favorites were always slightly concave- which by the time a Wiz is concave it's more beat than I want in a putter or overstable approach disc. The Yeti has nicely solved this problem for now, despite my initial reservations about it being too soft. The newer runs are more KC feeling to me and less R Pro. Although it's cooling down here, so I'm waiting to see if my feelings change once it's warm again.
